Technology and free time

Altman reflects on expectations that AI would reduce work. He hopes technology will eventually provide more time for life outside work.

Sam Altman reflects that some people expected AI to leave us with more free time, though he says the outcome has been less obvious than it first appeared. He leaves open the possibility that it could happen in the future.

Altman says he hopes people, himself included, can work a little less and have more time for the rest of their lives. In his view, technology should help make that possible, even as people continue to want more from life and the world and make themselves busier.

02

Ambition and busyness

The speakers consider why people keep wanting more. Berman offers a hypothetical comparison with life a century ago.

Matthew Berman suggests that this reflects human nature, offering the hypothetical that people might work very little if they were content with the living standards of a century ago. Altman calls the desire for more a beautiful part of human nature. Their exchange is a perspective, not evidence for the proposed one-hour workweek.
